  • Commented on Light show caused by astronaut urine
    Big waste. Urine can be used as fuel! http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/07/28/Your-Car-and-Home-Could-Soon-Be-Powered-By-Your-Urine.aspx...
  • Commented on Scavenging power from trees
    Hasn't anyone ever heard of Nathan Stubblefield? In addition to his demonstration of wireless communication in 1908(prior to Marconi's research efforts,) designed arc-lamps which were powered via "heavy wires leading from the roots of trees." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jsXFfa9DVY...
  • Commented on The blog of Philip Garrido, serial rapist and kidnapper: "sound control" gadget hallucinations.
    On a side note, Philip Garrido's claim have invented such a "mind communication" device would have been tossed out due to the existence of Prior Art. See George Meek's "Spiricom" device: http://www.answers.com/topic/spiricom http://www.angelsghosts.com/spiricom.html Essentially, the claims of this device are...
  • Commented on Light made out of thousands of straws
    Also doubles as an acoustic sinkhole! http://amasci.com/freenrg/audhole.html...
  • Commented on Daydreaming brains are afire
    More proof that the state of mind least threatening to the Control Structure is the "alert" Beta range. Heaven forbid the people should have a moment to untie their knots and experience epiphanies!...

    As of this message, the search string "thank god for UAC" returns a total of 7 hits, all but one being hypothetical scenarios....

    Oh, to have a garage to begin with! Aren't all the startup shareholders bankrupt and living in one-bedroom apartments or renting a single room as they "get real" and take any job that actually pays in legal tender? Not a...
  • Commented on Reengineering Earth to stop climate change
    Creating such a mess was dumb enough, turning natural processes upside-down to cover the ill effects is just asking for Darwin's BanHammer =P...

    The image looks like (economically)free energy :)...
  • Commented on Man unveils 30-year-old "instant water boiler" invention
    Anyone seen a Tibetan Singing Bowl used with water inside? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQWBA8q8JEs Also, a resonant cavity has the tendency to accumulate energy over time, so even if the sound waves don't carry enough instantaneous energy to boil the water, just wait...
  • Commented on Cleveland death ray of 1934
    Hey, the description of its effects on the victim reminds of something in Firefly, where they staged that heist on Ariel and these two g-men wiped out the entire arresting party with these two-prong thingamabobs that emit some blood-boiling frequency.....
  • Commented on UFO in texas pursued by military jets, say witnesses
    Enough idle speculation. Go build a UFO for yourself, the parts are available at your local hardware store....
  • Commented on Video of YAPMM (Yet Another Perpetual Motion Machine)
    Such cowardice shares a good portion of the blame for perpetuating the current energy crisis(along with price-fixing.) The number of so-called "laws" broken by far exceeds the number postulated throughout herstory. Think for yourself and then act on what you...
